Caring & reliable dog sitter/walker

Pet care experience

Having had 2 working Cocker Spaniels in our family and more recently a Cockapoo, I know the importance of routine, exercise and of course love and attention that our adorable forever friends need. I took our Cockapoo to doggy school initially and learnt many skills to improve recall, communication and toilet training. With saying this I prefer to walk any dogs on a lead initially until we become familiar and of course many owners prefer this too! A little bit about me, I am a part time Flight Attendant and have been for the last 17 years. I am trustworthy, reliable and flexible in committing to dates and times for any visits or stays as I know my monthly schedule well in advance. Above all else I know how anxious I used to get when I had to leave my beloved one when I went to work/away so, rest assured they will be in safe and sound hands with me.
